Sari, Yurizka Melia; Fiangga, Shofan; El Milla, Yulia Izza; Puspaningtyas, Nicky Dwi – Journal on Mathematics Education, 2023
Proportional reasoning has been greatly influencing the development of students' mathematical abilities. Along with the area conservation ability, it helps elementary students comprehend area measurement. This exploratory study aimed to produce qualitative-descriptive data on elementary students' proportional reasoning in solving the conservation…

Erdem, Emrullah; Gökkurt, Burçin; Soylu, Yasin – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
This study aims to examine the strategies developed by 7th grade students while shading different percentages of geometric shapes. The study was carried out with 113 7th graders studying at a state middle school in a province of Turkey. The data were gathered using the Shading Percentage Test, which consisted of seven tasks. Data analysis employed…

Mikio Miyazaki; Taro Fujita; Koji Iwata; Keith Jones – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
This study focused on improving students' learning mathematical of proofs and proving by using combinations of proof strategies that span different levels of understanding of proof structure; we refer to these as 'level-spanning proof-production strategies'. We analysed the level-specific proof-production strategies evident in the lessons and…

Sheng-Kuei Hsu; Yuling Hsu – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2025
This study was conducted to optimize the designs of learning guides embedded in a computer-based simulation environment. The research was based on the Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning and Cognitive Load Theory. We investigated computer simulations under four conditions that combined representation and imagination learning strategies. This…

Rabab'h, Belal; Veloo, Arsaythamby – International Education Studies, 2015
Jordanian 8th grade students revealed low achievement in mathematics through four periods (1999, 2003, 2007 & 2011) of Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). This study aimed to determine whether spatial visualization mediates the affect of Mathematics Learning Strategies (MLS) factors namely mathematics attitude,…

Silver, Edward A., Ed.; Kenney, Patricia Ann, Ed. – National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, 2015
This book's 28 chapters are adapted and updated from articles published in NCTM's "Journal for Research in Mathematics Education" between 2000 and 2010. The authors have rewritten and revised their work to make it clear, understandable, and--most of all--useful for mathematics teachers today. To help teachers even more, these articles…

Miller, Amanda L. – ProQuest LLC, 2013
This dissertation reports the results of a qualitative research project on area measurement. The study utilized structured, task-based interviews with students to (a) investigate the ways students enumerate and structure two-dimensional space with a variety of area units; (b) identify conceptual, procedural, and intuitive aspects of area…

Evans, Michael A.; Wilkins, Jesse L. M. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2011
The reported exploratory study consisted primarily of classroom visits, videotaped sessions, and post-treatment interviews whereby second graders (n = 12) worked on problems in planar geometry, individually and in triads, using physical and virtual manipulatives. The goal of the study was to: 1) characterize the nature of geometric thinking found…

Sedig, Kamran – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2008
Many children do not like learning mathematics. They do not find mathematics fun, motivating, and engaging, and they think it is difficult to learn. Computer-based games have the potential and possibility of addressing this problem. This paper proposes a strategy for designing game-based learning environments that takes advantage of the…
